I've recently had a intriguing discussion with some of my associates over dinner & drinks this week. To my surprise I didn't know that my private love affairs were going to be the topic of discussion. Shockingly the focal point of this intrusive conversation was "my type". Now in my opinion "my type" is a very subjective idea as oppose to any standardized template of who is best suited for who based on ethnic backgrounds, cultures or skin color. One of my friends made mention of the type of female that qualifies as a potential person of interest for me. The criteria that stimulates my preference is very simple....you have to be BAD!!!! Now I know this is a very vague statement at best. However I think that we all can agree on a common definition of the word if we keep a few things in mind. Your agenda determines your type....i think. So that being said your type is really based on timing more than anything right??? (Amen Brother!!!Preach)

So as for Ms. Right Now....she has to be a few things to fit into the scheme of things which is my hectic life. She has to PERFECT!!! but there has been a sudden shortage of females of this brand. So as long as she is balanced I'm happy. Physically I am partial to a few bad ones!!!! So I'm going to need my management to reach out to Eva Mendez (NO! Really.) If your type is any reflection of you are then I'm really happy with who I am.

What up WORLD!!! I love saying that!!! (it delivers a sense of empowerment because I feel as if im speaking to the entire human race)

Today I feel really ambitious, so I intend to knock out a few records I've been really lackadaisical about writing. I know your wondering what has occurred in my life that has altered this impassive mood I've been snagged in? Well, I'll tell you....absolutely nothing. The simple realization that everyone has they're moment and that you have to be prepared to courageously seize that Moment and Own it!!! Proprietorship of your Dreams as they come to fruition goes hand & hand with its enjoyment. Be ready to take full advantage of your success when it comes....be a Champion of your Opportunity. You work hard so that you can one day enjoy it when it comes as oppose to working through it....so I challenge you guys to be Kings & Queens of your Moment. King Me!!!

Mook G, Mook G Star or Mook Milli whatever you want to call him, he's the up & coming rapper signed to Career Crookz Records. I've been grooming him for this industry since before I retook the game seriously. He's a East Orange, New Jersey transplant that I discovered a few years back. As of last year I really started to develop and push him and I'm confident that he has the potential to be one of the next rising (G)-Stars in Rap. He is currently working on solo material for his debut mixtape "Amerika's Knightmare" (Young, Black & dont give a F*ck) more coming soon on Mook Milli........

Bloggaz, Wat-ta-gwan *Sean Kingston voice* I was on my Laptop (AKA my Bottom B**ch) goez everywhere with me! and I decided to put together a unoffical Trailer Clip for the Welcome 2 the Slumz Mixtape. It just me on Camera in some of my day to day personal life during the recording process of this Tape....CHECK IT OUT!!!!!

What it look like??? I've decided to start updating my Blogspot with footage from my day to day life. In the studio (Gemstar Pro)I was experimenting around with Sequoia's sound trying to find a signature lane for her.

Sequoia is the third artist I've taken interest in and have extended Career Crookz Records contracts to. She is currently working on records and appearing on upcoming Mixtape Release from myself and Mook Milli (Career Crookz Artist). I'm going to do separate blog post for all of my artist real soon.

itz officially that time!!! OCTOBER is here and were closing up the 1st mixtape of the year!

My everlasting perfectionist syndrome & the schedule conflict ion between me & my DJ (@DJKI of the Powerhouse DJ's - Follow him on twitter) has caused several delays on the the Tape. I actually appreciate the fanz flooding my Facebook inbox, wall & my twitter page with inquires about it. *WELCOME 2 THE SLUMZ* will be out Mid-October!!!! (Amen). I'm going to be back later this week to Release the Cover Art for the Tape and maybe some teaser music.

Also I've sat down with the Label (Career Crookz b**ches!!!) and Blak Byrd Music and we have agreed that the effectiveness & visibility that a official retail release could provide is not something that would be in our best interest to ignore. So before we go into this huge album next year we've got a few more mixtape releases and a EP. Yes yes yes I said it....an EP. Tentatively titled "Damage Control" through my current joint label venture. Its going to be available through iTunes, Amazon, Welcome2theSlumz.com, and in All music store outlets. We haven't decided which Singles or features will appear on which project but we have quite a bit of my music to choose from.

There are quite few producers I have to have on these Projects including Kajmir Royale, Vybez Beatz, Fedarro, Jacoby P, and a few other usual producer collaborators. At any rate I guarantee that my fanz will be really pleased with the music I have coming......stay tuned!!!

It has been several months since I've actually blogged...it is very shameful for me to actually call myself a blogger. With my discovery of the convenient social network know as twitter accessible right from my blackberry phone...its been tough to find a moment at home.

At any rate I have a plethora of new information& updates to share with the Slumz World!!!!

I've been hard at work on the "Main Event" album...and being the perfectionist that I am its taking longer than imaged. This is my first album and I want to make a mark on Hip-Hop as well as contribute to revitalizing the commercial and financial force behind rap music. So everyone who has been supporting me through out this long journey as well as all the soon to be supporters and fans you have a classic album to look forward to in 2010.

In the Mean time I've been making a lot of power moves which include fine tuning the Career Crookz Records roster & launching a R&B Counter Part (sister label) Star Stru-Q Entertainment

As far as Career Crookz Records we signed a few artist this year...along with Original Artist Chase Dolla$...Mook G Star, Tavi Buttons and Sequoia all jointed the ranks. We collectively are working on the "Rich Get Richer" Compilation Album to release shortly after my solo album so make sure you guys check for that!!!!

The young upstart label Star Stru-Q Entertainment to be ran by Patrice Hicks is in the process of signing Singer/Song-Writer/Dancer "Jody Jaz" as well as R&B Sensation "Azari Love"

As for Tai Slumz the Artist while I'm prepping the Main Event I'm putting together "Now Showin..." Mixtape which is compilation of freestyles, remixes, and original material themed after a Hollywood movie idea. "Now Showin..." is scheduled to be available for free download via various websites Feb 4Th, 2010

Balance is commonly defined as equal distribution of weight, this is a expression that is synonymous with Rapper Tai Slumz. His struggle to balance his craft & personal life, his drive to pen hit records but keep his music honest, and his drive to focus on the positive things that are lined up in his future but not forget the character defining hardships of his past that help build him. With all of these deal breaker scenarios at play he is determined to reach success. Raise by Washington, D.C. transplants from Nigeria, Slumz also mastered the idea of balancing cultures which shows in his ability to appeal to more than one genre. There is something to be said about a complete artist in this day & time. Seldom is an artist able to win in so many categories matching witty lyricism with compelling content, creative delivery with natural flavor and trendsetting fashion with undeniable star power it isnt hard to see why Slumz is ahead of the competition.
